### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ `A Pole without a Horse is like a Body without a Soul'
*by K***Y on September 6, 2008*

'It would be futile to tell of the grandeur and beauty of this cavalry...it is a chivalry that has no equal in the world'-Cosimo BrunettiFor most of the 17th Century, the armies of Poland were dominated by the hussars, mounted armored noblemen who fought with lance, sword, and pistol. Fearless, well-trained and led, and tactically versatile, the hussars earned for themselves a reputation as the finest cavalry in Eastern Europe, and maybe all the world. At the Battle of Kircholm in 1605 the Polish hussars became one of the only cavalry forces in European history to defeat an army of pikemen unaided.It was later in their history, particularly in their period of decline in the late 17th and early 18th Centuries, that the hussars' decorative wings, sometimes attached to the man and sometimes to the horse, reached their heyday. Ultimately the hussars of Poland would be remembered for their colorful ornamentation at least as much as their battlefield value.Author Richard Brezezinski offers a solid and highly readable account of the Polish hussars in this book. He has authored several other books on Eastern European history for Osprey, and also served as a historical advisor for `With Fire and Sword' an epic Polish film featuring the winged hussars themselves. In this well-written book he clearly describes the recruitment and social origins, organization, armor and equipment, and tactics of the hussars, as well as outlining both their rise and fall to prominence.Like any Osprey book, this title is above all a powerful visual source. Eight color plates by Velimir Vuksic capture the colorful appearance of the proud hussars and their armor and `wings', as well as their heraldry. Numerous examples of contemporary artwork and some photographs, including one from `With Fire and Sword' are featured throughout the book as well.In short then, this is a good introduction to the cavalry of 17th Century Polish Armies, an elite of European military history who seem to be largely unsung outside of their Country.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Hussaria
*by J***I on July 20, 2013*

I did enjoy this book and it covered a good insight into this particular period of Polish history, I personally think that the wings were probably quite cumbersome and were probably more ceremonial then actually used in battle.
